ABSTRACT
Gramazio Kohler Research has forged new frontiers in digital fabrication by employing the use of a 7-axis robotic armature. The robot is capable of swapping "hands", called end-effectors. These end-effectors give the robot the ability to create custom components by gripping, bending, spraying, or using conventional cutting tools. This project is similar to other work by Gramazio Kohler Research (West Fest Pavilion, Procedural Landscapes) and others (Dunescape). However, the intent for this project was to create a wall cavity found in a typical exterior building shell. This constraint matched with the limitations that each batten on the surface be the same length. The surface used to create each portion of the wall should be a multiple of the width of a single wood batten. To determine the location of each batten along these initial surfaces, array a single line the length of a batten along the face of each surface.
